Once again, I got liquidated. Only after reviewing my trading records did I realize how naive I was.
Starting with over $200, I took a month to reach over $2,400. During that time, I was really floating, thinking I had found the secret. But then I shorted ZEC and held on stubbornly, losing over $1,900. Before I could recover, my BEAT long position got trapped again, losing another $460. In the end, my principal was completely wiped out.
Getting liquidated actually woke me up. Only when I calmed down did I see clearly—my cognitive level is average, my knowledge reserve is average, and my emotional management is also average. The most painful part is, with such conditions, I still deluded myself into thinking I could make money in this market, which is just self-deception.
Now I’m really conflicted. Sometimes I think about adding funds to recover, and other times I feel this is simply a bottomless pit. If anyone has had similar experiences, I really want to hear your thoughts and advice.
The idea of putting in money to break even must be killed off, or you're just jumping into a pit.

Starting from 200 to 2400, feeling good about oneself. Isn't this the inevitable path for every new rookie?
---
Why add money again? Better to understand the reason for the loss first.
---
ZEC holding strong, really, this is the move—just take the hit, and it's worth learning a lesson.
---
Don't think about getting back your money, buddy. Learning to cut losses is more important than anything.
---
Actually, the biggest gain from a liquidation isn't the money, but finally seeing yourself clearly. That's valuable.
---
$2400 in a month? I just want to ask how it's done. Care to share some tips? Haha.
---
Why bother worrying? If you have no money, don't trade. Save up and practice with small positions.
---
Managing your mindset and understanding are average; if you don't improve these two, don't bother trying to make money.
The dream of making quick money costs the most, I advise you to stay calm for three months before considering adding funds.
That wave of ZEC was really tragic. Holding on stubbornly is always the wrong choice. This lesson was a bit costly.
